as a quick and dirty fix, you can modify the exchange-correlation
functional that is hardcoded in the PP file: PBE and PW91 are not
that different. A better procedure would be to take the data used 
in the generation of the PW91 PP (available together with the PP)
and try to generate a new one with PBE
